When Melava got to where the Lord Seeker is he rushes toward her and she backs up almost into the strange unseen boy behind her.... the same one from the Temple.... "you!.... are not....!!"  she whispers softly in surprise "DON'T YOU TOUCH ME!!.... ENVY!!"  she screams and her body becomes really warm the scar on her chest glows a bright green the Demon/Seeker grips her shoulders and its hands get burned as her skin becomes hot and it jumps back in pain with a scowl "you're hurting helpless hasty what happens to the hammer when there are no more nails?"  Melava hears a soft soothing male voice say from behind her she turns around and her eyes lock with the bright blue ones of the strange boy that are hiding under his hats large brim and underneath his long blonde bangs....

Taking her distraction as a chance to try again the Demon/Seeker rushes up to Melava and grips her shoulders once more the boys eyes widen then look at her sorrowfully as she is dragged backwards "I am sorry!"  Melava hears the boy whisper in an even softer voice..... soon she is in a dark place covered with small wisps of bright green waves of smoke all around her feet and shiny green cracks all around acting as walls and a ceiling.... it was a familiar and yet unfamiliar place and she looks around and it changes into a forest with a Dalish camp in the middle of it the elves within it are skinny, dark and pale the points of their ears were far too long she ignores the Demon who was trying to become her and rushes past it running around watching a strange version of her past play out she finds the boy in a room that very much looked like her bedroom when she was 4 he was standing on the roof looking down at the copy of her 4 year old sleeping form till he heard her walk in knowing what happens in this "memory" she turns around and starts to walk out of the room not wanting to relive it....

"Wait"  she hears the boy say and she turns back around and looks him in the eyes which widen for a few seconds as she smiles warmly at him and as though to distract himself he continues "Envy is hurting you mirrors on mirrors on memories a face it can feel but not fake"  he appears in front of her and continues  "I want to help... you.... not Envy"  they look at each other she tilts her head as he looks like he wants to reach out and touch her but doesn't her smile becomes warmer as she asks him softly "you were at the Breach.... why did you hide!?!.... did you think you would be unwelcome!?!"  she pauses then whispers softly "I would have welcomed you!"  he answers taking a step closer to her normally he would stay hidden till he was ready to be seen but with her he WANTS to be seen "I've been watching I'm Cole we're inside you now.... or I am..... you're always inside you"  he bravely takes another step closer and continues "it's easy to hear harder to be a part of what you are hearing.... but I am here, hearing, helping.... I hope"  her golden silver eyes brighten as he continues "Envy hurts you.... is hurting you I tried to help then I was here in the hearing it's..... it's not usually like this"  she takes a step towards him and says "I have no memories that I wish to share with it!.... how it got.... here!"  she waves her hand around "I do not know!"  he replies softly with a tone full of shame then he takes a long step back and lowers his head sadly and says "that is.... my fault!.... I want to know you.... all of you!.... and I.... brought it here"  he looks up at her and changes the subject by saying "you're frozen Envy is trying to take your face I heard it and reached out and then in and then I was here"  he looks over at her child form still asleep on the bed and he sits on the bed frame at the foot of the bed looking from the little girl back to her as though trying to figure something out
